Chapter 438: Core
The tribes of the world are clamoring to find the source of Itzax's strength and wisdom, and this so-called source of power is now in front of Hao Ren - yes, knowledge is power...... Look at what Zenith technology is used in Demon King City!
The machinery roared in the huge power room, and the technicians in alchemist uniforms were busy adjusting the magic energy furnace that was still in a state of verification, and Hao Ren and the others walked from the circular corridor into the equipment area, and their mouths were not closed along the way. Lily looked at the surrounding Yiqiqi in surprise, and then lowered her head to look around, Hao Ren saw this situation and immediately gave the husky a knife: "The machine room is heavy!" How dare you collect small stones here and be careful of being thrown out! β
Lily covered her head aggrievedly: "I'm just curious about what these runes are for......
Itzhax stared stunned at the red glow suspended in the center of the concentric rings of alloy. The surrounding facilities were built under his auspices, but the most critical core device was never in place, because he couldn't find an ore that was stable enough and could provide massive magic energy output for a long time - even if he purified the conventional glowstone countless times, it would not meet the requirements, so the suspension function of Demon King City was always a theoretical thing. But now that it was clear that the core of the power furnace had been solved, he felt incredible: "What the hell is this energy core?" β
"We don't know," Elizabeth fiddled with her two little horns, "and found three of them from another dimension, one of which broke down during testing, and the other one was installed in the device, and the other was left in reserve." β
At this time, a tall figure walked over from the side and bowed to Yitzhax: "King." Are you here to inspect the power furnace? β
Hao Ren glanced curiously at the other man, the tall creature with dark blue skin and peculiar, glowing green eyes. There is also a long tail that looks like a dragon behind him, and a thin layer of cuticles can be seen on his arms. This is one of the seven major races in the world, the "Spirit Race", which is said to have superb alchemy technology and crystal technology, and in the Demon King City, the Spirit Race and the Black Dwarf are the most powerful technicians.
"Well," Izax nodded, "let me take a look at the spare power core." β
The energy core placed in the energy extractor is wrapped in a layer of red light, which has a unique property and seems to be able to completely block external prying eyes, so it is impossible to see the details under the light. So at this point, Yitzax knew that there was a spare core, so he brought it up to see.
Although the Spirit Clan technician was curious about why his boss suddenly wanted to see the spare core, he still nodded: "Yes, please come with me." β
Hao Ren was also quite interested in that "energy core", he always felt that there was a vaguely familiar aura coming from the dark red light, so he hurriedly followed at this time: "Let me take a look!" β
Spare cores are stored in a secure warehouse not far from the power room to ensure that the cores that are currently in use can be replaced in the event of a problem. The safety warehouse is made of pure gold, and the average thickness of the outer walls is more than one meter, which shows how much attention the technicians attach to the contents of the warehouse. The Spirit Technician opened the door of the warehouse, and inside was a square room ten meters long. The soft glow emanating from the walls made the room very bright, and the spare energy core lay silently on a central recessed stand.
It is a red ball with a radius of more than three meters.
"What is this?" Hao Ren had an inexplicable feeling as soon as he saw the ball, his heart skipped a beat, and then he stepped forward to study the surface of the ball curiously. The sphere is not smooth. If you look closer, you can see that there are some irregular craters and folds on it, as rough as the skin of some kind of echinoderm creature, and a closer look reveals some pattern in the crater folds. It seems to have some faint lines. Hao Ren curiously reached out and touched the ball, slightly exerting force. Feel a little bouncy.
Elizabeth, the little girl next to her, was suddenly startled: "Hey! You just touch it! β
"Can't you touch it?" Hao Ren was also taken aback.
Elizabeth scratched her face: "Oh, it's okay. I'm just scaring you. β
Yitzhax easily slipped his daughter to the side, and then stepped forward to sense the breath from the ball: "It contains a lot of power...... A primordial energy, incredible...... This thing gives me a ......."
"It's like the breath of a creature, right?" Hao Ren frowned, a certain guess in his heart became clearer and clearer, and Lily next to him had already begun to sniffle, and the husky girl had a nervous look on her face, and her tail wagged uneasily: "Landlord...... I smell this stuff a little familiar! β
Hao Ren put his ear on the ball and listened, and then suddenly felt out the number of terminals: "Scan the structure!" β
The number jΓΉ terminal was immediately attached to the ball: "Let you see the power of high technology...... Heyβ"
The corners of Hao Ren's mouth twitched: "I'll let you have a CT, as for how hard it is." β
A blue light swam around the sphere, and a detailed structural diagram was projected on the terminal, which was the internal structure of the sphere.
The structure of the sphere is surprisingly simple, only some delicately structured elastic skeletons support the shape of the whole sphere like a sponge, and in the gaps of those sponges, you can see slender tissues like blood vessels or nerve bundles, and the sphere seems to be filled with some kind of viscous crimson liquid, the texture of which feels very familiar.
"I think we're in trouble......" Lily took a breath and thought of something like Hao Ren, "This thing looks familiar!" β
"...... This machine swears by all the processing cores of this machine! The number jΓΉ terminal detached from the surface of the sphere in an instant, and flew behind Hao Ren, "This thing is the same creature as the 'eldest son'!" β
Everyone at the scene was shocked except for the confused Elizabeth and La Nina, Lily's tail instantly exploded into a sword mound, and the whole person jumped up two meters high, and rushed out with a whiner: "Whoa-hee-hey-I'm going to die...... Bang! β
"Calm down! Calm down! Hao Ren shouted to everyone to calm down, and by the way, pulled Lily off the warehouse wall, "Don't panic, don't panic, this thing is not moving!" β
Vivien's face also changed greatly at this time, she instantly summoned a large group of bats to protect everyone, and after hearing Hao Ren's words, she noticed that the ball was indeed lifeless, and there was a subtle difference from the breath of the "eldest son" that day. She carefully directed a few bats to approach the ball, while telling the others to be safe: "Slowly retreat, slowly retreat, don't wake up the 'eldest son' like he did that day." β
Elizabeth looked at the group of people inexplicably: "How ...... you"
Itzax pressed the little girl's head and pulled her back, "Don't move...... This thing is dangerous! Dad met once in the field! β
Elizabeth looked at her father in astonishment, and when she saw that even he was showing such an appearance as if he was facing a great enemy, she suddenly became nervous: "Dangerous...... Dangerous?! There's one in the power stove! I won't be able to stop for a while! β
"Don't worry, don't worry, let's figure out the situation," Hao Ren immediately turned back to tell Elizabeth and Itzhax to calm down, and then turned to look at Vivian, "How's the situation?" β
Vivien had a few small bats lying on the ball, and she was checking the ball with her extra sensitivity to blood. On that day, she had let one of her little bats eat a sample of her eldest son's blood, and now this blood sample is the key sample for her to judge the situation.
"There seems to be no life response," Vivien frowned, "the blood is dead. β
"Are you sure?" Hao Ren was not at ease, "The eldest son fell into a deep sleep, and he didn't move. β
"But the eldest son had a strong life force at that time," Vivien waved to recall her bat, "I can feel that this orb is in a very different state from the firstborn, it must have been dead for a long time, and the blood is no longer surging - it still contains some kind of primordial energy. β
Hao Ren was a little relieved at this time, and stepped forward to touch the red ball, as if he was afraid that it would suddenly come to life and devour a qiΔ carefully: "Dead? β
Lily also woke up in a daze at this time, and she looked up at the humanoid dent on the wall of the warehouse: "This figure is familiar." β
Hao Ren felt that this funny husky could at least ease the atmosphere.
"You said you found this thing in another dimension?!" Izzax suddenly turned to his daughter, his expression was unusually stern, "Take us to see ......"
Before he could finish speaking, a shrill alarm suddenly sounded around him, and after a while, a spirit technician rushed in: "King! Legions of Thraton and Banu Clark appear outside the city! In addition, it has been detected that the Holy See coalition forces are also approaching! (To be continued......)
